The next round? Troye thought. All he wanted was some tea
and to go back to sleep, and it didn't seem like Solia needed them.
But even so, Zia was frightening and gorgeous at the same time. He
looked over at Lise, who was studying Zia carefully with a light
smile on her face.
"If you don't mind us asking what do you mean next round?"Nyx
finally asked quietly.And what do you mean learn from
example?She thought to herself while letting her eyes flit
around to look for enemies.
"Next round of the game, of course! I promised Beyond and Nightmare
both tries, so I'll probably have them go next. Dream could see her
brother again, hm? If in combat, but what better time to meet old
friends. Wouldn't you agree, Solia?" Zia says, smirking
slightly.
"Zia, please, I don't want to fight this battle again." Solia
says.
Zia's gaze softens slightly, her smirk sliding away. "But we both
know there's no choice."
Was this all some kind of game? If it was, Lise was done. This was
all too much. Meanwhile, Troye watched them both curiously. They
seemed to have some interesting history.
A flash of gold comes from Zia's right and she hisses, holding her
shoulder, which is now bleeding. A little leaf made out of gold
skids to a stop in the dirt and Zia holds out her other hand, a new
knife forming in it. "Stupid Amali... maybe I will kill her." She
hisses, her gold eyes flashing dangerously.
Natia did a mental facepalm then glared at Zia "You have got to be
kidding me!" she yelled, on the verge of snapping "Are you trying
to make me angry? You all are such idiots!"
Zia blinks at Natia, then her eyes narrow and turn a slightly more
animalistic yellow. "Excuse me? Do you want to die?" She hisses,
stepping forward, forming another knife in her hand.
"I should be asking you that." Natia growled, her blue eyes staring
ice cold daggers into Zia "A few things you should know about my
people. One, we are descendants of dragons known for their
bloodlust. Two, we only get like that when we are snapped. Three,
I'm about to snap if you hurt any of us." She said her tail lashing
around
Zia laughs a little. "Please. Don't insult me. I burn civilizations
to the ground in my freetime." She allows her knife to disappear
and her eyes turn back to brighter gold.
Nyx sighed knowing this was more then likely going to end in
bloodshed."And we go from peaceful talking to bloodshed in point
five seconds.Yay for us."She mutters to herself.
Natia rolled her eyes at Zia "you are too cocky, you know that?"
She yawned, bored of the trip they were on. She turned to Solia
"So... we leaving or doing something, cause I'm bored."
Lise looked at Troye, who looked just as bewildered as she felt.
"She's something..." Troye mumbled. Lise tapped her necklace twice
and her wings disappeared. She didn't seem to need them anymore.
She hoped they could leave here soon. She didn't want to be around
these people much longer than she had to.
"She was interesting."Nyx quietly mused.And the meeting was
quite informative."She thinks to herself while closing her eyes
and pretending to sleep again.
Troye and Lise sat down, and Lise thought about what happened,
while Troye played a game on his phone. Lise looked over at Solia
before saying, "So do we ever get to go to that town?" She asked.
